I just updated my resume and applied to a VP role that seems like a great match in many ways, but I received a rejection email 10 hours later. It seems likely that something in my application was automatically flagged and I am trying to figure out how to avoid that in the future. A few ideas - I did check off that I had an active non-compete (but not in the same industry) and obviously I used AI tools to help with my resume/cover letter (but I personalized it quite a bit). Thanks!

It is definitely the AI tool usage that they are filtering. Companies want to use AI tool to filter the resumes for right candidates but they don’t want candidates to use AI tools to build their resumes.

Yeah; don’t use AI for your resume. Try to write it in your voice.

I think it's the non compete
